Some new 1,3-disubstituted-2,3-dihydro-2-iminobenzimidazoles were synthesized using 1-(un) substituted-2-aminobenzimidazoles as precursors in order to determine their cytotoxicity. The structures of the compounds were confirmed by IR, H-1 NMR, C-13 NMR and elemental analysis.Compounds 4, 7-11 and 13-14 were evaluated for their cytotoxical effect on two cancer cell lines: human colorectal cancer cell line HT-29, breast cancer cells MDA-MB-231 and as well as normal spleen cells. The distinctly marked antiproliferative activity of 1,3-bis(3-phenylpropyl-1)-1,3-dihydro-2H-benzimidazol-2-imine hydro bromide 7, N-(aminopropyl)-2-(3-2-[(aminopropyl)-amino]-2-oxoethyl}-2-imino-2,3-dihydro-1H-benzimidazol-1-yl)acetamide 9 and 1,3-bis[2-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)-2-oxoethyl]-2,3-dihydro-2H-benzimidazol-2-imine 11 against human colorectal cancer cell line HT-29 was ascertained and the calculated IC50 were 926, 0.56 and 0.013 nM respectively. Compounds 4, 9, 10 and 13 exhibited relative high cytotoxic activity against MDA-MB-231 cells. The calculated IC50 values were in the range 0.123-1.65 nM. All tested compounds excluding compound 1,3-bis[2-(4-methylpiperazin-1-yl)-2-oxoethyl]-2,3-dihydro-2H-benzimidazol-2-imine (11) revealed proliferative activities to normal spleen cells. The computed EC50 values varied from 0.05 to 16.91 nM. (C) 2011 Elsevier Masson SAS. All rights reserved.
